The Japanese-style house features a washing machine, a locker and a private bathroom. Guests sleep on Japanese futon bedding and electric blankets are available. The kitchen is fully-equipped with kitchen appliances and kitchenware for cooking.

Shuji and his wife are very friendly and hospitable. Though the 90-minute check-in procedure is a bit lengthy but Shuji does it so both of you and him can have a good experience. Once you check in, you’re pretty much left to your own device. Would come back to AN if I visit Otsu again.

    We stayed in a room with a private mineral bath. The room was as large as an apartment, with its own foyer, and areas that could be contained by beautiful screen doors. We loved the space, the views and the wonderful service, but especially the food and the ritual of having our own private dining space, which evidently goes with the ‘special’ rooms. This is a great place to unwind, leaving the rest of the world behind! Staff were beyond excellent! If the canal boat is running its a great excursion to take. Food was just superb.

    Lovely food, staff, baths, own private dining room, meticulous service and very clean area. I think it’s almost impossible to top in those regards. The room with its own hotspring was divine. The massage was excellent. Would recommend.
